Multan Sultans Become the First Team to Qualify for Play-Offs

Southern Punjab’s team, Multan Sultan, has made their fans proud by becoming the first team to qualify for the play-offs in 5th edition of the Pakistan Super League (PSL).

The Sultans collected two crucial points earlier today against Islamabad United in a rain-reduced match, winning the contest with ease, thanks to their bowlers and James Vince.

Shan Masood-led side is currently placed at the top of the table after just 7 matches with 11 points. Here’s how the updated PSL 2020 points table looks like after 22 matches:
